From Life to Death

is but moment if rheumatism or neuralgia
strikes the heart. These diseases are the
most painful and the most dangerous of any
to which human kind is liable. They fly
from one part to another without mo-
ment's warming and liniments and other out
ward applications are in themselves danger
Gus because they are liable to drive the dis
ease to some vital organ and cause instant
death. Rheumatism and neuralgia are dis
eases of the blood, and can only be reached
by remedy which will drive from the blood
the dangerous acids. Such a remedy is
Athlophoros. 1t has been thoroughly tested
and is a safe. sure cure.

THE VICTIMS OF TEE RICHMOND
Graphic Tale Related to the Coroner
Ahouf the Ere and Ita Origin.

About the Fire and Its OrlgiR.
BUFFALO, March 2S.-This afternoon Cor
oner Kenny continued his inquest into the
cause of the death of the Richmond fire vic
Tins. The first witness called was Joseph
McCabe, night porter at the Richmond. He
said: cit was my business to make the
rounds of the house every thirty or forty
minutes during the night. On the day of
the late fire went on duty at o'clock .. m.
During tho evening was in and out of the
coat room several times up to O'Clock in
the morning. 1 had no occasion to go there
again, but am positive that the gas was near
ly turned off. Mr.. Airport was the first
person to notice the fire. At this
time I was in the reading room
sitting down. He called to me and
we went to the coat room together. The
fire was located in the northeast corner under
the stairs and first seemed to me to be about
three feet high and about two feet wide.
The blaze came from the floor. l noticed it
in particular and do not think the fire came
up through the floor. I rushed for the hose
as quickly as possible and Strengthened it
out through the Office and turned on the
water. saw the water fill the hose about
| thirty feet and would not go any further. I
then rushed to the dining room door and

them on the fire. Then I started for more
water, but the flames cut me off. Mr.. Al
port then turned on the electric bells and we
ran to the front door together
1 think the kinks in the hose pre-
vented the water from going through
In my opinion everyone of the guests could
have been saved but for the telegraph wires
which prevented the fremen from using their
| ladders have no theory how the fire orig
mated unless somebody accidentally dropped
| a burning match in the coat room; still can
| not account for any particular person that
might have done so"
| The next witness was. Mr. Whitaker, one
| of the propretors. He.could not throw any
| light upon tie direct origin of the fire. He
stated that the hotel was paying very well
and he could not believe that the origin of
the fire was anything but purely accidental.

BosroN's CHAMBER oroommERoE

Looking Out for the Cfty's Interest
Under the Interstate Law.
BOSTON, March 2S.-At meeting of the
Boston chamber of commerce held on March
10 to see what action the association will
take to protect the interests of Boston under
the law to regulate interstate commerce a
resolution presented by W. o. Blaney was
warmly debated. The meeting without tax
ing action adjourned until to-day. The ad-
journed meeting was called to order this
noon. Edward Kimble pointed out several
objections to the resolutions and offered the
following as substitute:
Whereas. 1t is understood that the recent revis-
fon hs BY ne T
has resulted in fixing the freight rates from al
New England at i've and ten ' cents per hundred
pounds over and above the rates from the same
Resolved, That in the opinion Of the Boston
chamber of commerce, this action is not only I'M
reasonable and oppressive, but that it constitutes
an unjust discrimination under that law and is
therefore illegal.
Resolved That under these circumstances it be-
comes the duty of this body TO act and if necessary
to appeal to the Interstate commerce commission
that may be relieved from unjust discrimina-
tions
whose duty it shall be, first, to confer with the
trunk line managers and then to appeal to the inter-
State commerce commission in the respect above
set forth.
The resolutions. were unanimously adopted.
1t was voted that in the make up of the
committee the various trade committees
should nominate representatives.
Anxiety Felt In New Brunswick.
ST. JOHN, N. B., March 2S.-Considerable
anxiety is felt in the northern counties on
the line of the New Brunswick railway in
regard to the effect of the United States in
bsr-State commerce law on exports. Its |
operation will have the effect of greatly in |
creasing the cost of freights practically in |
bark, potatoes and hay, the trade in which |
from one county alone reaches many thou |
sands annually. The result it is thought |
will be to lessen the export.

those who wish to rule US protest against
lawful competition? Shall those who
are unwilling that the slightest line OF
separation between ourselves and them
be drawn in hotels vr steamboats,, or on
railways, protest against the competi-

ness? Will the leaders of the negro in
sist on the mastery because they are
free? Then they will prove absolutely
true the worst charges ever made against
their race, and demonstrate their utter
incapacity for the duties of citizenship.

plore the existence of such feelings as
find vent in Purcells letter.

Questions and Answers,

We give elsewhere q protest made
by Alderman Purcell, of this city,
against the employment Of white labor
ers by the company who are putting down
y system of mains for the Palatka Water
works. A number of questions is fired
off at US, with the answers to which we
have nothing to do. Our inquisitor is
good citizen, as far as we know, but he
was a newcomer" himself once, and
entered most industriously on his trade
here, the very first effect of which was
to deprive some ''oldtimers" Of work ex-
actly as the newly arrived laborers are
now standing in the way Of others al
ready here.
But there is plenty Of work here for
all. Florida needs all who are willing
to give honest labor for fair equivalent,
and as long as the leaders of the colored
people keep within the bounds set by
the laws, they can protest or grumble
as much as they please. The employers
who give out the work are gentlemen
from Boston. Massachusetts. Some Of
them were doubtless in the armies which
gave Purcell his freedom; they, OF course,
will employ those who give the most
for the least. That is all right, because
the negro must now take his place
among the citizens Of this great repub-
lie, and he should scorn to ask for more
than fair show. This every citizen of
Palatka, whether of Northern or South-
ern extraction, will see that he has, and
il he would drive out competition he
must do SO by giving either cheaper or
better work. The iaborer has no more
right to exercise a monopoly than has
the merchant: he shall have the full
protection of our laws, and for more he
must look to his own brain and muscle.
The same protection given him by the
white man against violence or injustice
will be extended to protect others. We
TiA hare no threats or disturbance from
amy source. We iciH insist on equal
rights for all.
Let the writer of this protest think to
what goal he is hurrying. He is now
speaking against the exercise by others
OF the same privileges he has % often
claimed for himself Did white mechan-
ice drive him from Palatka, when he be-
gan work here only few years ago?
Has he not voted against Us, spoken for
himself in all public matters. exercised
the rights conferred on him and his
peers, and have white men ever at
tempted to abridge these in the smallest
particular? Has he not even upheld
among US lawless element which
sought to injure himself as we'll as us?
Has he always done his whole duty as a
leader OF the colored people. for the best
interests Of good government and for
the protection OF the interests which
have made Palatka what it is? Let him
mete out to others the same measure he
has received; let him be peaceabls and
reliant on his own efforts in the future
as in the past.
The colored people who attempt to
threaten or injure the laborers just come
among Us, will make a great mistake.
They have helped US to build up our
ountry and our town; We need their
muscle, and we have shown always q
willingness to pay them for what they
